Chapter 127 After the Banquet

The person who got up from behind the bush was none other than the hostess of Ningguo Mansion, Youshi.

Because she was spied on by her step-son Jia Rong, she suddenly had another seizure, so she left the main room alone with tears in her eyes, and went to a secluded place in the backyard to feel sorry for herself.

After crying and scolding for a while, the depression in my heart also dissipated a lot. I was thinking about returning to the house, but unexpectedly I saw Jia Rong carrying a lantern from a distance and staggering towards this direction.

For a moment, Youshi was so frightened that her soul flew away, fearing that something unethical would happen again in this place where she was yelling for help.

She didn't have time to think too much at the moment and hid in a panic behind the bushes. She originally wanted to wait for Jia Rong to pass by and then quietly escape home.

Who would have thought that those two people stopped right in front, said a few words to explain the confusion, and then did some wild things.

In particular, Jiao Shun chose to stand in front of the bushes, which made Youshi look at the pickled and scary things, and even some mud splattered on his clothes.

But when Jiao Shun left drunkenly, Youshi stood up in embarrassment and spat twice, secretly thinking that no wonder this rough guy asked for a carriage and horses earlier, and the master just said, "Give it to him," and it turned out that he had someone in his hand.

The handle!

It's a shame that I didn't know what was going on at first, and I got scolded for it.

Thinking of Jia Zhen's words, "He's not trying to ride you," Youshi felt her heart pounding, and her mind was filled with unspeakable scenes.

She hurriedly recited "Amitabha" several times silently, then returned to her room in the dark with one foot lower and one foot higher.

It wasn't until I took off my coat and sat on the warm couch that I gradually calmed down from my shyness and restlessness.

Unexpectedly, not long after, Jia Zhen pushed the door open and walked in drunkenly.

Youshi was a little frightened at first, but then she recalled her restlessness just now, and she actually had some expectations - although it was not as good as being miserable, it was still better than staying alone in an empty room.

So while calling the maid to bring him the sobering soup, he walked towards Jia Zhen to flatter her.

Jia Zhen glanced at her drunkenly, and then said: "I just heard that the people in the Xifu are afraid of renovating the garden to welcome the mother-in-law home to visit relatives. I have promised them the back garden of our house - then the two of them will

Opening up everything makes it look more grand."

Youshi was shocked when she heard this and couldn't help but said bitterly: "In the previous tire business, I had to beg and beg with shame. That Feng Lazi was only willing to give up a shop and asked us to provide money to run it ourselves. Now, uncle

How could you be so generous and have a good yard..."

"You know nothing!"

Jia Zhen scolded disdainfully: "The two families are one and the same. Now that there is such a big happy event, we should do our best to help!"

Then he added: "I heard that Brother Lian went back to the south and came back with a lot of money. I'm afraid he won't have a million taels of silver!"

Youshi was surprised and said: "Then Aunt Lin actually has such wealth?"

"emotion!"

Jia Zhen's eyes widened: "That's the Salt Patrol Censor, one of the best in the world! That means Uncle Lin has always been a noble man, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to defeat him with three or four million taels!"

In the last sentence, he couldn't help but reveal his thoughts: "With this windfall, the Xifu will definitely do a lot of things. Let's be more generous now, and we can take on more errands in the future - we will still need it by then."

Are you worried that you don’t have money to repair the holes?”

Because Qin Keqing owed a lot of money for her funeral, You had been worried about money a lot recently. Now that she heard Jia Zhen say she had a nose and eyes, she became even more excited and went straight to Jia Zhen's arms.

Unexpectedly, Jia Zhen gasped and pushed her away. She stood up and said, "You have been walking around there a lot lately. If there is any trouble, come back and report it to me. Don't delay my important business."

!”

With that said, he walked out.

"master."

Youshi was anxious for a moment and hurriedly chased her two steps and asked: "You, you are not sleeping at home today?"

"Just take a rest and leave me alone!"

Without looking back, Jia Zhen uttered one sentence and hurriedly disappeared into the night - the medicine was extremely valuable and he could not bear to waste it on the 'old man'.

Youshi was filled with emotion, but she didn't want to find it interesting, so she had to wash herself and rest.

But in the dead of night, she was tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Her body was as red as a fried pancake, and her mind was filled with frightening memories.

…………

But he said that the banquet was over.

Because Jiao Shun wanted to enter the house through the back door, he said goodbye to Jia Lian and Baoyu, and Shi Shiran returned to his home.

Although he was sixty or seventy percent drunk, his mind was still clear, so he ordered Xiangling to take the imperial edict and read it carefully. He saw that there were many praiseworthy words on it, and he felt even more proud.

When he first arrived at the Ministry of Industry, he had thought about making some inventions first, but after understanding the current situation of the handyman's office and reading through Taizu's quotations, this idea gradually faded away.

Most of the workshops under Gein's Handyman's Office have already entered into mechanized production - steam engines have been around for a long time. Xia Taizu ordered people to bring them back from the West and renovate them. Now they are used in slightly larger workshops.

Xia Taizu also put out some advanced theories long ago.

As for the production and improvement of various secrets and precision craftsmanship, it is not something that he, who has failed in the liberal arts exams and has been working as a sales agent for more than ten years, can complete it in a short time.

So after much thought, I decided to start from the overall situation.

Unexpectedly, he won the admiration of the emperor and Xue Baochai in one fell swoop...

While he was overjoyed, he suddenly remembered something, so he called Xiang Ling and asked, "Has there been any movement in the second girl's courtyard recently? It's been six or seven days, but I still haven't seen any response from Si Qi?"

Xiangling has never heard of any trouble.

"Then you go over there tomorrow and ask."

Jiao Shun said, and gave her the imperial edict to keep carefully.

Although this imperial edict has been given, if there is another reward in the future, the previous one will have to be taken back.

At this time, the door curtain was lifted, and Yu Chuan'er came in with a basin of hot water, placed it obediently in front of the bed, and said, "Come over and warm your feet."

Because she had received Jiao Shun's "serious words" earlier, she felt ashamed and disappointed, so she went to her sister to complain.

Unexpectedly, Jin Chuaner scolded her instead, saying that men are inevitably a little secretive, and it would be fine if the wife and grandma intervened. The maid wanted to hold on to her even if she was just showing off, but she didn't think she would live longer?

Although Yuchuan'er heard these words in her heart, she was still young and energetic, and she was passionate. In the past few days, she couldn't get over it and admit her mistake.

But today, I saw that my father was rewarded with a reward, promoted to a noble family, and became a holy family member. With his vanity and greed for gain, his muscles and bones have already become extremely weak.

When Jiao Shun came over and sat on the bedside, she hurriedly knelt down on her side and sat on the footrest, took off her two heavy boots, put her feet in her arms without feeling uncomfortable, and said in a tired voice: "Master, sir

What you said to me a few days ago was all reasonable, but now I know I was wrong. I can beat or kick you, but please don’t annoy me any more."

"Hmph~"

Jiao Shun snorted coldly, stepped on it a few times, and suddenly came up with some dirty ideas.

I was in a hurry to wash up, so I grabbed the two of them.
Chapter completed!
